Yes it has.
Running msgmerge manually produces the same output:
{{{
$ msgmerge --update libs/ardour/el_GR.po libs/ardour/libardour2.pot
...............................................................................................................................
done.
msgmerge: `libs/ardour/el_GR.po': No such file or directory
}}}
I found this other report of the same problem for ardour in 2007, with the
suggestion to turn off NLS as a workaround:
http://ardour.org/node/1358
Not related to ardour, I found an explanation of the problem here:
http://subcommanderblog.wordpress.com/2009/05/16/msgmerge-on-macosx-and-
no-such-file-or-directory/
It seems to be a bug in the way msgmerge makes backup files on Leopard,
and the suggested workaround is to turn off backup files (we don't need
them).
I will report this bug to the developers of gettext.
I have committed a fix to the ardour2 port in r54481.
The developers of ardour might want to rethink whether it is appropriate
to run msgmerge on the user's system. Such tasks should be done by the
developers of ardour at packaging time instead.
